I love how well *that* cutscene is engineered. Every streamer has the same reaction. At first there’s no concern- every other vision has been changed, why not this one? But then as the situation deteriorates you start to feel dread and finally realise the inevitable, hitting even harder thanks to the i total power trip of wielding the Monado
Harry just assuming it was his fault that he was dealing 1 damage to metal face and not intentional is funny, but it is actually very good because it shows he's a fast learner - he's been paying attention the game. I've seen a few people play the game and not notice stuff like that. Also, "They're not gonna kill her off are they?" aged like milk extremely fast.
God, loved seeing him impressed by Howden's work there, it's gotta be so interesting to know each other from work they've done together then to go back and see his work from 10 years ago and just be like, "damn, respect."
Fun Fact about this scene: the cinematography for Fiora vs Metal Face is almost exactly reused for Vandham vs Moebius DJ in XC3, happens a lot with scenes from 1 in particular.
If there were _EVER_ a time to swear on stream, this would've been it. Even all these years later, this entire scene, God_damn_ Howden did a great job selling it.
The problem in 2 was always direction. Rex has a great shout near the very end of the game, but he rarely gets proper direction, making many of them flatter than the scene calls for.
@@GaraichuYT2’s problem was that the Directors were learning the script alongside the actors, almost like a Simuldub with less prep time. I imagine part of it was keeping the plot twists a surprise from them so that they could get more natural responses, but the performances in early game suffered as a result (not helped by the tonal inconsistencies of said early game seeing how they had two scenario writers for the story split between odd and even chapters with very few note comparisons). As the actors got more comfortable with their roles you can tell that their performances overall improved until we hit the peak that is TTGC.
I've been sick all week and couldn't watch the stream live I've only just now had a chance to watch the vod back and honestly it's kinda clear that he wasn't really feeling it this stream, he seemed very tired and not fully engaged or focused There aren't really any standout moments from this one aside from maybe one

Now harry knows, what matches his "MIOOOOOOO"
And what he hasn't even heard the best of howden's (shulk's) screams either.
Honestly not yet, that moment is at Valak Mountain. XC2 is at Tantal.
But yeah XC1, this is one of my fav part.
@@masharulawValak Mountain? Either I’m forgetting something or you meant to say Galahad Fortress.
@@paperluigi6132 When Shulk screams "FIORAAAAAA" like wgen Noah screams "MIOOOOOOO".
@@masharulawhe does scream Fiora’s name in both places, but the one in Galahad is much more impactful.
His reaction to Howden’s screams gives me life

Your honor, I would like to present peak fiction
Acknowledged, Sustained, Approved.
That was a wild chain attack for early game.
FR FR
that worldly slash was hot-knife-through-butter-ing him so hard he had to activate the cutscene right then & there 😂
Hopefully he picks up on "same color make damage number go brrrr."
The hardest part of being a xenoblade fan is to tell people about the game WITHOUT spoiling the game.

Also, "They're not gonna kill her off are they?" aged like milk extremely fast.
"They're not gonna kill her off, are they?" aged like Fiora. They both died young.

Thank you thank you thank Lunar for making these clips
I still get chills every time I hear Shulk scream "I'LL KILL YOU!". The despair and rage is just so believeable from Howden's delivery.
Adam really needed some sort of voice acting award for Shulk, because good lord he was too good.

Despair. Rage. Grief. Horror.
Even all these years later, Howden still delivers an utterly gut-wrenching performance.
If there were _EVER_ a time to swear on stream, this would've been it.
Even all these years later, this entire scene, God_damn_ Howden did a great job selling it.
Ah yes, the original "MIIIIOOOO!!!!"
This scene will still always be one of Xenoblade Chronicles’s peak moments. Mainly because of Adam Howden.
I know in his mind he’s probably thinking
“Oh that’s why everyone keeps comparing me to Howden”
[3:48] >"Blood down the claws. This is wild--"
*>"I ' L L K I L L Y O U 🤬"*

bro was Shooketh™ 😭🙏
when people make fun of rex screams in 2
This is the scene everyone turns to 3:50

This series is so peak, man. Crying from how beautiful it is.
Thunder Shock on a Geodude is sending me
T-T
Damnit this is making me wanna restart the trilogy again 😭
"Howden nailed it"
Wait till he gets to Prison Island
The moment I ve been waiting for since he started streaming
It's so Miover
Where can I find the vods?
Same
They are currently on his Twitch channel. I don't think he's put any on YT yet. It's linked in the video description.
He didn't stream this week?
I've been sick all week and couldn't watch the stream live
I've only just now had a chance to watch the vod back and honestly it's kinda clear that he wasn't really feeling it this stream, he seemed very tired and not fully engaged or focused
